C.E.T. Oral Hygiene Kit for CatsOne of the most overlooked facets of pet care is dental hygiene, and gum disease is one of the biggest health hazards.

The Oral Hygiene Kit includes a finger brush, tooth brush, and toothpaste so you can get your feline on her way to a clean, healthy mouth. Brushing a cat’s teeth can be a challenge, but the toothbrush is designed for a cat’s smaller mouth and isn’t as invasive as other brands.Available at: Amazon

FURminator deShedding Tool for CatsUnless you own a Sphynx or hairless cat, you must deal with your feline’s habit of dropping fur wherever she goes.

Available for different cat sizes and hair types.Available at: Amazon

LaxatoneWhen a cat grooms herself, the hair collected on her tongue ends up in her stomach, where it is passed in the litter box or spit up (the latter usually someplace humans don’t want it to go).

Available in different flavors and a cat-treat version.Available at: Amazon
